According to the U.S. media Motor1 July 9th report, the U.S.
Department of transportation, Missouri, said the news, as a pilot project will
be installed on the surface of Highway 66 solar panels, solar panels are also
integrated into the LED lights and heating equipment.

As a high-tech substitute for cement and asphalt, the hexagonal
solar panels ofsolar power
generator will absorb solar energy and convert a
portion of the solar energy into electrical energy into the grid. More
interesting is that the solar panels will also be equipped with LED lights, can
be used to display the lane signs and speed limit information.

Another advantage of the solar panel is that it is also
integrated with a heating device that can be used to melt snow and ice. This
greatly saves the cost of road maintenance, because the road maintenance personnel
in the cold weather no longer need to throw salt or chemicals to the road to
snow melting.

The first solar panels are expected to
be installed in the Missouri state landmark 66 Highway Service Center this
year. The Ministry of transportation hopes to continue to expand the program,
and will seek to install more solar panels by raising funds. The leader of the "future
road" program, we will be through the public and the network to raise
funds, our solar road plans to become more perfect, to promote more areas.
